Gilead Stock Pops nach Covid Drug bringt 2020 einen Umsatz von 2,8 Milliarden US-Dollar

• Total first quarter 2021 revenue of $6.4 billion increased 16% compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to Veklury® (remdesivir) sales, Cell Therapy growth with Yescarta® (axicabtagene ciloleucel) and the U.S. launch of Tecartus® (brexucabtagene autoleucel) in the third quarter 2020, the first full quarter recognition of Trodelvy® (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy 180 mg) sales, and Hepatitis B virus (“HBV”) growth with Vemlidy® (tenofovir alafenamide 25 mg) .
• Diluted Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) increased 12% to $1.37 for the first quarter 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, primarily driven by revenue growth, partially offset by fair value loss adjustments related to Gilead’s equity investment in Galapagos NV (“Galapagos”) and lower interest income.
• Non-GAAP diluted EPS increased 24% to $2.08 for the first quarter 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to higher operating income and lower effective tax rate, offset by lower interest income.
• As of March 31, 2021, Gilead had $6.2 billion of cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities compared to $7.9 billion as of December 31, 2020.

• Total second quarter 2021 revenue of $6.2 billion increased 21% compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to Veklury® (remdesivir), higher demand for Biktarvy (bictegravir 50 mg/FTC/tenofovir alafenamide 25 mg (“TAF”)) and our hepatitis C virus (“HCV”) products, as well as continued uptake in the United States of Trodelvy® (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy) and Tecartus® (brexucabtagene autoleucel).
• Diluted Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) increased to $1.21 for the second quarter 2021 compared to net loss per share of $2.66 for the same period in 2020. This was primarily driven by the impact of higher in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) expenses in the second quarter 2020 related to the Forty Seven, Inc. acquisition and revenue growth in the second quarter 2021, offset by fair value loss adjustments on Gilead’s equity investment in Galapagos NV.
